WoOT!!!! 97 more 3pointers and Ray Allen will shoot down reggie's 3point record.

I estimate if Ray makes around 2-3 a night, it will take him 48 more games to break the record, which will occur on Wed, Feb 16 against New Jersey in Boston. So if you are at the game that night, make sure to give Ray Ray a nice round of applause.

And once Ray helps Celtics win another CHampionship banner this year, that should assure that his number gets retired in Boston.

Yes.. that's about right... mid February... IF... he stays healthy.

RA's biggest shot last night though was his flush to seal the game. Kudos to CPP for the nifty feed.

winning games by 1 to 3 points or in ot is not a championship caliber team. wait until the old legs start to give way. oh, that only happens to other teams right?

And to think some poster wanted to trade him for Mike Miller!! HAHAHA.Posted by kyceltic

Here's something for Celtic fans to think about. We give Denver Rondo, Perkins, Bradley, and JO, they give us Carmelo, and Ty Lawson. We get a superstar closer, and the Nuggets come away with about as much as they are going to get for Anthony.

We get a superstar closer, and the Nuggets come away with about as much as they are going to get for Anthony. Both teams come away a winner, with this trade! I know we have Pierce at the 3 spot, but i'm talking about a young superstar, one of the 5 top players in the game!

Allen is remarkable. How many 2 guards remain so productive at the age of 34? The man's a consumate professional who takes care of himself. He's got great genetics, that's for sure. I mean his mom looks great. Didn't she complete a marathon last year? One time my wife asked if she was Ray's girlfriend or wife when she was on camera. It is a real sign of how the game has changed when Ray Allen and other players make more 3's in a season than many entire teams attempted 20 years ago.Posted by pliu

Ray's 35 years old or young now. Ray's still a terrific player. He played really well last night vs. the Bulls. Breaking the 3 point shot career shot record is worth calling a record. The Rondo first 5 game assist record started by ESPN is just ridicilous or obsessive stat. reporting.

Ray is not 34, he is 35. He will be 36 3 weeks after he gets his 2nd ring. And that will only make this more remarkable.

Not only obsessive stat reporting (mucho hype) but obsessive PG stat seeking. I would feel better about Rondo's progression as a player if he were not 11 PPG, 16 APG but rather 16 PPG, 11 APG at this point.

We could use the extra scoring punch from the PG position, particularly late in the game.

The 16/11 player would also suggest that Rondo was focused on and had been working on remedying THE HOLE in his game... his shot... particularly late in the game... instead of improving on something (assists) he already excels at.

Is this the consolation prize he brings to the table instead?

Perhaps the out-of-synch two years ago was due to KG's absence more so than to Rondo's scoring more or maybe how he was scoring more. He hasn't replicated this since then to my knowledge, not last year when KG was out/ineffective/walking wounded much of the season.

Rondo had to score more two years ago because the team was out of sync due to KG's absence. If he hadn't we would not have gotten by the Bulls. I never said that the team was out of sync b/c Rondo was scoring more. But I believe that if Rondo scored more playing with an intact team--even if he were a better shooter-- it would not make the team more effective. If Rondo were a better shooter, however, it would make the team's overall offense more effective since Rondo's being more of a scoring threat would make him an even more effective playmaker.Posted by pliu

It seems to me that paragraphs 3 and 4 directly contradict one another... or maybe I am missing something.
